Quite often you have to make modules that have some variations: Navbar with or without menu / button etc.
It would be really convenient if you could create one component for that purpose but create variations so that you just have a single option in your modules menu but then you can choose parameters (Ideally multiple parameters with dropdown fields or toggles). For example you add a navbar to your email and can activate/deactivate switchers:
  • All activated – you see the logo, button and menu
– Only logo and button are activated
– Or only logo is activated
– Only logo and menu are visible
– Only logo is visible
For buttons it will be super convenient: Select state of your button from the dropdown: Primary or Secondary, for example.
One more and maybe the most useful use case is languages: Now if you work in multiple languages your modules menu is super cluttered. For example when you have the navbar variations mentioned above and 5 languages it means that you need to save 21 module (each of 4 variations with text five times + only-logo navbar).
Variable modules will make life so much easier. The functions I described were inspired by Figma's components.
